ROOSEVELT'S SUCCESSOR? In view of the prominence attach- ing to the name of Major General Leonard Wood and the possibility that he may be chosen as the Repub- lican candidate for president, un- usual significance may be detected in an address he delivered Sunday at Springfield when he appeared as the successor of his close friend, Colonel Roosevelt, as an exponent of military preparedness. General Wood is not suffering from any delusions concern- ing war in the future. He lends his moral support to arbitration and ad- judication of disputes by methods other than a resort to arms, but he does not believe, and he so states can- didly, that war is a thing of the past. “Wars are coming as sure as there is a God in heaven and a sun in the sky,” he sald. “If you want to avoid them make your preparations in time of peace. Be ready and then the Political enemies of General Wood may accuse world will respect you.” him of bein ga plagiarist as there is marked similarity between his words and those of President Washington in the latte fifth annual Philadelphia on December 3, 1793: *“If we desire to avoid insult, we must be prepared to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, ¥ * it must be known that we ar for war.' all times ready However, it would be un- just to accuse General Wood of ap- propriating Washington's sentiments, Since the day of the first President, we have had many other prominent men who have subscribed to the same policy in almost identical language. Another thought on the same line ex- pressed by the General was: “When knows that you can re- your enemy sist his encry chments, you will be fectly helpless.” If General Wood differs in politic: opinion with his commander-in-chief, he at least does not retreat a single chief's belief that it step from his was America's duty to enter the wa war as it was that of I'rance from the fir 3 Since t ~yelt, no one has appeared as a can- as the leader of group. didate for his crown It would not be taking a great risk to the preparedne prophesy that General Wood is about to as- sume that role.
